Sox doubled Oakland's offer for Gomes

Another Guy who will do well in Boston!!!!!

Well, Boston IS gonna need leadership after hiring a manager who couldn't lead a McDonalds.

That is a lot of think highly for a part time journeyman player.

As a Sox fan, I am highly skeptical of this signing. Yes, I can see Gomes banging some shots off the wall, but...he's a part time player.

Show me a team full of players who meed a manager to motivate and lead them, and I'll show you a team full of losers.

gomes could finally become a every day player in boston's lineup and why not?? i mean the guy proved in the oakland coliceum and in different stadiums , he can hit and can be a productive player,,,,

gomes could surprise everybody by playing in every game at the red sox team,,,
i mean he hit 262avg, drove 50 R,B,I,S and hit 18 homeruns in only 300 at bats?? that should do the trick,,,

I'm going to venture a guess and say he won't.

55 million per year isn't much, plus they can do with him what Oakland planned to do--trade him at the deadline for young suspects to a team that needs a right-handed power bat.

the red sox are expecting gomes to perform at redick level, produse as many runs as many r,b,i,s,,

josh reddick got a good production for the A's, as it looks the red sox are searching for the same results from gomes in their team's lineup!!

lets not forget the A's have outstanding team work.seth smith/ Cespedes/ brandon moss/gomez/coco crisp/brandon inge/and the pitching rotation and relievers, it was just awesome, there wasn't a each of greed in this A's team at all!!

I won't forget. I'll never forget.

brandon McCARTHY/ tommy millone/brett anderson/travis blackley/ bartolo colon/A.J griffin/jarrod parker/dan straily/ plus all the A's relievers were just too disciplined in their bullpen!!

i think aside from needing a tough offensive lineup, the red sox should get their coaching staff in the right gear to say the least!!!

the A's have great team work plus they showed alot in their humble approach at the plate and in the mound, this A's team succesfull season was all thanks to the good work at the coaching staff, chili davis/ and rickey henderson were a tough duo on their spots as hitting coach and bench coach!!

its chris young replacing gomez? or he would be a part timer in their outfield?? coco crisp and josh reddick plus joenis Cespedes are a tough outfielders just to name a few!!!

i hope the A'S be able to repeat or at least have a decent season,, the team was great already in the regular season but to blow rangers away was +10,,,
